Blush Magazine

Editorial beauty publication

Blush is a magazine theme for writing that argues with the marketing: reviews worn for weeks, ingredient explainers, and shade notes that never fit in a caption. It ships as a complete publication, including 13 page types, a four-collection CMS and 30 demo stories; not a landing page with a blog bolted on. Stories, four ways: Every post picks its own opening from the CMS: Standard, Banner, Cover, or a full-screen Immersive treatment where the header lies over the photograph. Section pages do the same, choosing a featured, grid or list layout per section. Built as a CMS, not a page: Posts, Sections, Contributors and Topics, with reference fields wired throughout — section pages, contributor pages, topic pages and an archive all fill themselves. Covers carry credits, alt text and an optional wide crop; read time is computed from the article body. Features 13 page types: home, story (4 layouts), section, topic, contributor, topic and contributor indexes, archive, about, contact, privacy, saved and 404 Mega menu and dropdown that open on hover, focus and tap, close on Escape, scroll and navigation, and hand over to a drawer on small screens Save for later, with a saved reading list readers can remove from Share sheet, reading progress, and horizontal rails with arrows and swipe — no scrollbars Dark mode on colour tokens, with a header toggle Load-more pagination, search, and a newsletter and contact form ready for your destination Five breakpoints, from phone to 1500px Manrope and Mulish, set as text styles you can retune in one place Measured, not asserted: 100 / 100 / 100 for accessibility, best practices and SEO in Lighthouse, and 90+ performance on desktop. Skip link, landmarks, labelled controls, a sane heading order and reduced-motion support throughout. JSON-LD, canonical URLs, and social cards that use each story's own cover.
